Boxing icon Iron Mike Tyson, 58, makes his in-ring return against YouTuber Jake Paul this month in a bout set to capture the attention of world, fight fan or not.

The pairing of these two fighters has ignited both excitement and skepticism.

Jake Paul is the favourite to win at 10/23 at the time of writing. 9/5 are the odds for Mike Tyson' win, and 9/1 if you predict they will fight to a draw. 

While 27-year-old Paul has made significant strides in the boxing world, challenging established names from the MMA world such as Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz and Mike Perry, the younger brother of fellow internet celebrity (and WWE superstar) Logan Paul has come in for plenty of criticism for picking perceived "past-their-best" opponents, athletes with minimal pro boxing experience or even lower level counterparts such as Tommy Fury.

On the other side of the coin, Tyson's legendary status as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time adds an undeniable allure to this matchup but also raises questions about the safety and sensibility of a spectacle that's set to catch the eyes of millions around the world.

'Iron Mike' is a two-time heavyweight champion and reigned as undisputed champion between 1987 and 1990.

Here's all you need to know about this strange yet intriguing matchup between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.
